RE: dbaccess - return key does not work?
A short follow-up in a thread about the Return/Enter key not working in dbaccess. The only contribution here suggests the cause may be terminal settings: shell startup files (.profile for ksh, .cshrc for csh) can apply unexpected stty settings that break keys such as backspace, kill, or Enter, and manually resetting stty values usually restores normal key behaviour. The message is just a suggestion — no confirmation or actual resolution of the original problem is recorded in this thread.

Jack, Andrew, Could there be an stty setting in the way? I know on solaris sometimes my .profile (ksh) or .cshrc (csh) can have unexpected stty settings (unexpected for me, but perhaps good for some application or someone). An unexpected STTY setting can hose up my backspace key or my kill key so I have to do a couple stty settings to get things "out of the way" and then my normal key expectations start working.
